Anal can be painful but you can always stop. What really helped me was reading some informative books on anal sex (they have some good reads on here!) and took I it slow at first. Once you get past that initial pain, it can be very pleasurable.

Agreeing with what's been said. Anal sex is painful without lube and preparation. How much preparation you need depends on your own preferences, and how you're feeling that day. For me, personally, I like to have a lot of foreplay and tp orgasm at least once before any anal penetration. It helps me relax and it makes the experience more enjoyable. Fingers first, before penises or toys, even if it's just one finger to work some lube inside.

As for orgasms... Never had an orgasm from anal stimulation only, but anal penetration makes other kinds of orgasms more powerful for me.

Anal is quite painless if you take enough time to relax, use enough lube and avoid sudden penetration and over-large toys. For us men the prostate makes it possible to have the most amazing orgasms - something every man should experience IMO.

If your doing it right anal should never hurt. Go slow, use lots and lots of lube and pay attention to your body. I find anal very pleasure and I can have a orgasm from it very easily and it only hurt twice once when my hand slip and the toy went in before I was ready and when I accidentally used a warming lube with the toy (the warming was too intense) .

really, like everyone has said, it is only painful for me (a girl) when it happens to quickly. lots of wetness, and going very slow is the way. i have found it to be very much enjoyable in the shower. the water helps i think.

i have not finished from just that and i'm not sure i will ever be able to. but we are trying anal play when he is going down on me. so when i do finish, i can associate the orgasm with anal play. and i think it has been working very well so far

How many people find anal sex enjoyable? Can or do you have anal orgasms?

I LOVE ANAL SEX. I can't orgasm from anal stimulation alone but if I stimulate my clitoris while I have something in my ass it leads to an incredibly powerful orgasm. As long as you use lots of lube and warm up appropriately with fingers and butt plugs so that you are thoroughly relaxed anal sex does not hurt at all. If it is hurting you then you are doing it wrong and you need more warm up. You can't just shove a penis in and expect it not to hurt (this is dangerous as well). You have to warm up first.

I love anal stimulation. I haven't had an orgasm from anal stimulation alone but I do find that when I orgasm from clitoral stimulation while simultaneously stimulating my ass it makes my orgasms significantly more intense.
